The world's getting more and more crowded when it comes to tablets, but one sector that's still lacking is that containing Windows 7 tablets.

But...

It's one of the final companies to make this public, but it's good to hear nonetheless. While Intel's Sandy Bridge snafu is largely history, companies were scrambling for weeks to fulfill orders, satisfy customers and get "fixed" parts in from Intel.
